Well, good riddance to bad rubbish! A total disaster as a leader who not only failed to develop the case for independence one jot, but also proved to be kind of reverse-King Midas where everythin

I'll have nothing bad said about those great Moroccan people.

Abdessalam Benjelloun - Scored the winner in the Derby in to the Hibs end then ran the full length of the pitch back towards the Hearts fans goading them. 

God knows what he would have done if he wasn't stopped in his stride by Zibi Malkowski who was protecting the goal in front of the Hearts fans.

Probably battered them all I reckon.

I believe Aberdeen had a few of these silky fellows too......  Belabed and Zerouali. 

@Wester Hailes Skins

Yeah, probably.

I hate this stat when its dished out. Purely trying to disguise the true facts.

 

SNP got 47.7% of the constitutional vote with a 1.2% increase swing

Conservatives got 21.9% of the constitutional vote with a 0.1 decrease swing

Labour got 21.6% of the constitutional vote with a 1% decrease swing

Greens got 1.3% of the constitutional vote with a 0.7% increase swing

Lib Dems got 6.9% of the constitutional vote with  a 0.9% decrease swing

 

Its entirely plausible that SNP gain votes from the electorate that may not wish to vote SNP on their policies but is overridden by the desire to be an independent nation.

If that were able to be achieved, its plausible that then the SNP would have much weaker strength of support.

Good breakdown. It's also true that polling has shown, on many occasions, that around 33-40% of Labour voters are pro-independence.

Add to that the Greens and Alba who now have around 6-7 thousand members and had 44,000 votes in their first election despite no TV coverage or even a icon on ballot paper.

 

Its only going one way with the older dying out and the younger being able to see through the BBC bias on social media.

Makes you wonder what the likes of the BBC got off with when their were no smart phones around to highlight their lies.

Aye, you're young as fuck man.  And you've a good brain inside your head.  Dinnae waste it.  Stay the fuck away from drugs and arseholes as best you can....   

You're ok to be a clown in your 20's but when you're 30 and doing that shit you're testing everyone's patience and starting to fail at life.

Advice from an auld cunt. ??

Absolute rubbish.

@mods this is dangerous, unqualified opinion being passed off as advice to a vulnerable poster.

Again, it comes back to the blind faith so many have in the Krankie Kabal to deliver. She and her cronies have stuck steadfastly to the Section 30 order route, which in practice means relying on the permission of the very people whose rule you wish to escape from under. The logical fallacy of this aside, the practicality is that we are looking at a Tory victory in 2024 as a shoo-in, then barring an absolute miraculous turnaround for Labour, another Tory PM in 2029 as well. As long as a UK PM has a majority in Parliament and does NOT run on a manifesto pledge to allow such an order (and which UK PM would have their legacy be the end of their precious "Union"?!) there will be an indefinite impasse.

Bottom line, there won't be another referendum, unless the UK PM is legally compelled to accede to one. Martin Keating and many grassroots campaigners know this, yet one has to ask why they are doing what Sturgeon and co. should have been pursuing since June 2016?

Fits this got to do with independence? 
 

You'd assume we'd have the ability to vote out incompetent governments such as this, when and as was agreed, upon gaining independence. 
 

The SNP are an incompetent shower of cunts who I wouldn't vote for if they didn't want independence, there are plenty folk who think like that. 
 

Pointing out how shite the SNP can be doesn't negate from valid points about independence. They are just another middle of the road, liberal party, with an independence twist. 

So you vote for a party purely because you agree with ONE thing they stand for? :rolleyes:

Because he is forever shouting about Tories and anyone who votes for/agrees with them every chance he gets whilst bigging up the SNP. Yet when it comes down to it, he doesn't actually agree much with the SNP at all, just a rabid independence lover who likes to criticise everyone else.

So it's my fault the parties in Scotland are generally shite? 
 

Ive also not voted for the SNP in the last two GE's. 
 

Get back in your box, you brutal cunt

The point is you lambast the Conservative party any chance you get, whilst championing a party that you only agree with on only one issue. So you don't have much more in common with the SNP than you have with the Conservatives which is the point I'm making. Idiot

He clearly said himself that he would not vote for the SNP if it wasn't for them supporting independence! 

What if he did i only support independence cant be done with none of the Gender ideology crap the SNP come out with.

Would never vote Tory though scum of the earth party who don't give a fuck for Scotland.

Exactly my feelings, but with just about everything they stand for politically. I have nothing against independence whatsoever, but I can NEVER back it knowing that we would then be at the complete mercy of all their far left woke shite once they have complete control over the country. Fuck them, and bring on independence under a more sensible party.

Was in 2007.  

Yous scored first with Nicholson, then it was Steven Fletcher, Michael Stewart and 2 from Benji....

We had a great team that year.  Yer man Scott Brown instrumental.  Won the League Cup.  The final was 5-1 v Killie - Benji scored 2 in that game as well. 

Look at Michael Stewart's finish at 6.00 in this video.   One of the sweetest strikes you'll ever see....

You must be young as fuck.  I was already heavily tattooed, a coupla friends lost to suicide and drugs and a few abortions in.....

Do you have a pronoun? 

I missed Gervais to go to that game.

Poor choice.
